I'm in, thanks for the list Dusty. We're in a new home now so lots and lots of little jobs to do, but it's so lovely to be here at last :j Hope everyone's well and that this lovely weather continues to cheer us.

Noo is settling well into her new home and hopefully will give me some time to be able to get through the list!

Monday - Living room and downstairs Loo
Only got 15 minutes...
S&S the sink and toilet
Clear clutter from coffee table/mantle
30 minutes to spare...
Hoover, including the sofa, what's lurking beneath the seat cushions
Dust your electricals
Bash your cushions and shake your rugs (outside)
Got an hour...
Wipe skirtings and picture rails
Clean the windows
Do the 15 and 30 minute jobs too
Extras

Right, I'm up as Noo rolled onto her front but couldn't roll back again so started grumbling loudly until Mummy fixed it :rotfl:

Getting a cuppa but then will crack on with the list and getting things ready for DH to go to work. Ideally need to get through as much as possible before my driving lesson at 12:30 as Mum and Dad are watching Noo, which will then inevitably turn into staying for lunch, then a cuppa, then a play or walk with Noo, etc and before you know it the whole day is gone!

Morning all

I love the sunny weather but am struggling to sleep, I don't think my age is helping.

Most prep for 9:40 meeting done. Going to have 10 minutes on here then empty the DW, I want to get a wash going asap but people are still in the beds I want stripped.

Good morning :wave:

Thanks for the new lists, Dusty - count me in! No visitors this week, but plenty of computer work to keep me occupied, and the garden needs tidying up: there are multiple ash seedlings which need to be got out before their tap roots go down too far for me to pull them out.

This morning we are starting up a U3A canal group; this afternoon we have a weight check with the practice nurse; and this evening it's the Old Wives group meeting. I didn't sleep very well so hope I can keep going all day. Cloudier and a bit cooler here this morning than it was yesterday, but still very summery.

Other jobs on my list this week:
- sort house insurance
- birthday cards
- filing
- bank
- contact speakers for OWG
- taster resources
- 3-course notes
- Trustees' Meeting agenda
- clear the decking and get DH to oil it
- buy a sunshade (hoping last week wasn't just a one-off!)

Welcome back, amyloofoo - Happy New Home to you and yours :j
Dancemum, well done on turning your house round *and* getting slim for summer

(((Hugs))), spoons and sticks all round x

Morning all. Another one up early, I didn't want to get up so early really but the birds wouldn't shut up and there's flying in here to be done. I've had breakfast, as have the dogs, and sorted the banking (unexpected expense yesterday as had to put DDs BF on car insurance while she physically can't drive so he can ferry her to work).

Next is downstairs loo, gym, get showered and dress, walk the dogs, and tackle the LR jobs from the list before the paid stuff.

I have a short week at the paid stuff this week and am so happy with that thought.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning, I'm in. Not sure what I'll get done though. I have to take my oldies shopping this morning and they take soo looonnggg :eek:
I didn't sleep very well last night so feel quite cranky this morning plus I'm waiting for AF to turn up
DD1 stayed at her boyfriends last night as she no longer has college, she best no think I'm playing taxi today she'll have a shock.
Just woke up DD2, she's doing a good impression of a zombie :rotfl:
I'm going to finish my coffee, get dressed and do the neighbours cats

Morning all - been reading - again!!

Thanks for the threads NAtty and Dusty.

Just flung on my gardening gear and off to finish weeding the front before my shower. Bit of a funny week here as Aunt visiting sis and will be out a lot - so I'll catch up with you as and when.

Lovely pics again Piggers.

Have a good week everyone. xx

Morning flyladies :hello:

Where did the weekend go?!

Thankyou natty and dusty, I'll be trying my bestest this week. Slow start, building up to a Friday crescendo so I'm hoping to get as much done today and tomorrow as I can. DS2 has his discharge appointment at the dental clinic at 9.20; after this he should be back to the family dentist once every 6 months like the rest of us :T

Hope all are well xx

Thanks for the new thread Dusty. I'm in this week.

Today I need to visit Tesc0's. Paid stuff at 10 0'clock. DH is WFH as the incompetent drs said he needed a double appointments and booked him one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

DS1 has Physics today. I'm dropping him off for a revision session on my way to work.

DS3's heel pain has diminished. He won his football match 6-2 if they win the last 2 games they will win the league. They have to play yesterday's opponents again so we are daring to dream.

Cricket starts for DS3 this week on Wednesday. I hope the good weather holds.

I wish everyone a successful week.

Morning, have had a bad couple of weeks and been awol from flying so I am starting this week with good intentions.

DS1 woke at 4.15am covered in a rash (I am thinking it was some sort of heat rash) and DS2 is laid on the sofa saying he feels ill. What a start to the week!

Must get ready for work! Enjoy the sunshine everyone. xxx
